Where to Fabricate Stainless Steel Header.

[AceOtavio]

Any guru here know where i can fabricate a stainless steel exhaust header other than Seng Kwang? Really would appreciate your kind advice. Thanks

I think it would be insanely expensive to fabricate a header, possibly more expensive than getting ready made titanium headers...? what bike might you be riding...?

 

for myself, I would only fabricate my header if I have to make space for my turbocharger... can't think of any other reasons...

Why don't you buy a new exhaust header instead? To fabricate a header requires design, research and testing to make sure that it works with the engine. Poor design may result in poor exhaust scavenging and hp loss. It is different from the exhaust muffler which is simpler in design. Hope this helps.

hmmm... so you only need one header...

 

maybe you can try going ah gua lane, if you do not mind going into malaysia and do not mind waiting for the shops to open again (they take a very long break for chinese new year) you can try the many exhaust headers there and see which one is suitable...

 

and since your bike is a vintage bike, you might then send the exhaust for chroming to better match your bike? I believe this way you should be able to save money as compared to fabricating the header yourself...

You are right bro, i only need one.

 

Ah gua lane, where is it near? after jb custom where how to go? near to the old custom?

 

chrome is not an option as it is too hot the heat, the chrome cant withstand and it will soon crack after.

 

Btw anyone of you know the contact or address of this ah loo workshop in tampines, doing exhaust work?

 

Lastly really appreciate all your feedback n ideas....thank you so much.

good chrome would not crack! if not my friends riding harleys would have cracked pipes!

It's not as expensive as you might think. I have a set on my Yamaha 1200, very light and much cheaper than stock or any branded after market brand. They also look same shape as OEM. Had them made to fit.

Apart from Screwfix, who have limited choice and large minimum order quantities, where can I buy stainless steel studding, washers, nuts, bolts, etc., online? I cant find anywhere in UK on the Internet.
